Their job. If not that, then don’t make things worse. Or is that asking too much?
If I’m ever in a mass panic scenario...it’s not my JOB to deal with that situation. So...no, I won’t save the day.
However, if my job were to make tense situations better/safer, I’d think it were reasonable for people to question my usefulness if I actively made things worse/less safe.
